yeh the engine light stayed on

its a buzzing sound that comes from behind the cluster
and the engine light only comes on faintly
is the battery fully charged?
are the earths good? (the one on the thermostat, the gearbox and onto the rocker cover?)
sort out the faint check engine light first...
ok the b18 only had 2 connectors coming out of the engine harness whereas this one has 3
hmmm...
yes, but in theory it should be OK?
but i dont always like theories, so you can swap the B18A engine harness onto the B16A - then you will have to add the 4 new wires,
but it should work (without VTEC though).
yeah - sorry man - best option is to swap the B18A harness onto the B16A...
would that be hard to do with the engine already in....
there are a couple of harness clips under the intake manifold that might be difficult to remove, but not really hard,
just fiddly...
otherwise you could try re-pinning the B16A harness, but there is no-way you could do this if you didnt know how to...
not looking forward to this...
it is easy, just slightly fiddly...
it is only the injectors that are a hassle, and the bits undert the intake manifold...
